House For Sale £750,000
Grade II listed Regency delight with potential
Description
A charming Grade II listed, Regency town house positioned on the prestigious tree lined Binswood Avenue, Number 10 has provided a wonderful family home to the current owners for the past 40 plus years. Whilst retaining many of its original features, epitomizing the era of Regency architecture, it is now in need of improvement and modernisation. There is a rare opportunity for someone to purchase this enviable property and really make it their own.
The reception hall has access to the main reception rooms, stairs to first floor, lower ground floor and cellar, cloakroom, and doorway with direct access to the rear garden.
The drawing room is a generous size with double aspect impressive sash windows, overlooking the front of the property, and rear garden; and the open fire place acts as a central focal point. It would make a lovely formal dining area also. The kitchen is in need of modernising but has plenty of storage and space for built in appliances. There is also great potential for the breakfast room to be incorporated into the kitchen as more of an open plan style. (Subject to relevant planning consents.)
The accommodation laid out over the first and second floor offers fantastic flexibility and versatility. The first floor has two spacious bedrooms, one currently being used as a study, both with wonderful high ceilings and sash windows allowing light to flood through. There is also a generous family bathroom in need of upgrading and a cubby hole for extra storage space. The second floor has a further three similar bedrooms and WC.
Outside to the rear is a delightful garden, mostly laid to a paved courtyard and lawn area. Although in need of landscaping, this south facing sun trap has potential to be perfect for alfresco dining and entertaining to be enjoyed all year round. There is also secure access via a pedestrian gateway to the rear.
This is a fantastic opportunity to rejuvenate this wonderful home, returning it to its wealth of elegance and allowing you to put your own mark on such a delightful property.
